Chapter 2: Meet Zixuan!
"No matter what your Majesty's intentions are, since Chen Zhui has been designated as a champion candidate, it is no longer suitable for him to stay in Zhao Kingdom, but will make other arrangements."
"Que Hu and Lan Hai, after reporting their duties in Kyoto and completing their ceremonial journey, according to the usual practice, they will enter Kyoto for three years and will not stay longer. As for Lu Yuanwei, it will be at least seven years." Long Xiao said lightly.
"It should be so." Marquis Shenjian and Marquis Dingwu nodded in agreement.
The Zhou court attached great importance to the birth of the new Marquis Wu. Once it is officially established, a lot of effort and resources will be spent on cultivating it, and it usually stays in Kyoto. Absorb these resources and nurture. Generally, it will be ensured that the new Wuhou's combat power reaches a level sufficient to guard a place. The duration of this stay may vary depending on individual circumstances.
It could be as short as three to five years, or as long as ten or twenty years. It's possible.
Before leaving the capital, the new Marquis of Wu would have a fiefdom, but he would not be tasked with guarding immediately, and any official appointment would be put on hold.
First, it was to reward these people for their contributions to the court.
Secondly, those who can be conferred the title of Wuhou have proven their merit. They are usually busy with military affairs or busy with wars, and have no time to practice properly and study systematically. After entering Beijing, it was up to the imperial court to make up for this shortcoming.
Thirdly, it is to show the kindness of the imperial court and let the new Marquis of Wu express his gratitude for the emperor's kindness. It should be noted that the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty was very vast. Many people had never even entered the capital city before being conferred the title of Wuhou, let alone seeing hundreds of civil and military officials and the appearance of the emperor.
Although Dazhou has done a good job in educating people, they are far apart after all, and everything is under the control of the highest local governor. Most of the things I miss are not my kindness.
If it goes on for a long time, it will be caused. Only local princes and kings will exist. But I don’t know the situation of having a son!
Therefore, it is necessary to go to Beijing and 'edify' and practice for a period of time.
Lan Hai and Que Hu were better off. They were from noble families. Although they had rarely visited Kyoto, they had seen it. But Lu Yuanwei and Shen Zhui have never been there, so of course they have to stay longer.
Marquis Shenjian and Marquis Dingwu have both experienced this, and of course they won't have any opinions. Moreover, the imperial court's use of troops in the Jiuyou Realm has only come to an end. Lan Hai and Que Hu are destined to return. Lu Yuanwei is not sure, but that has nothing to do with Marquis Shenjian and Marquis Dingwu.
But Shen Zhui and Long Xiao didn't mention it directly. Obviously, he is going to stay in the capital directly.
Both Shenjian Hou and Dingwu Hou looked at Zhao Xing, obviously.
Wu'anhou now became the King of Zhao, and two great talents, Lu Yuanwei and Shen Zhui, appeared under his command, and both were Wuhou. The imperial court would not allow the king of a country to become too powerful. At the same time, it also prevents princes and monarchs from being jealous of talented people and suppressing Wuhou.
This point can be seen from the old events between Liang Wang and Zhao Xing, and the worries are not groundless.
Zhao Xing thought for a moment and nodded.
Whether Shen Zhui or Lu Yuanwei, they are both the best among men and there is no way they would be trapped on the border. Even though he is the king of Zhao, he cannot keep him.
Of course, Zhao Xing himself does not have those selfish motives. As he said to Shen Zhui before, he was very disgusted by being raped. He would not stand in the way of Lu Yuanwei and Shen Zhui.
Seeing San Rutou, Long Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately for others, even Lu Yuanwei is not a figure that the imperial court must keep, but Shen Zhui is so valued by the Emperor that he even sealed the title of champion. No matter how stupid the people below are, they still know that this must have a deep meaning.
There won't be any more disputes in the Jiuyou Realm in a short period of time, and Shen Zhui can't just be left to mold in the Zhao Kingdom.
"In addition, there is an oral message from His Majesty." Long Xiao changed the subject and added.
"Huh? Your Majesty's words?" Marquis Shenjian and Marquis Dingwu were both shocked and stood up quickly.
Zhao Xing also wanted to prepare to receive the edict, but was stopped by Long Xiao.
"It's a stupid edict. It's secret but not issued. It doesn't go through the central government. His Majesty specifically ordered that there is no need to salute. Everyone should sit down."
The three of them sat back in their seats.
"Your Majesty's decree...what exactly is it?" Marquis Dingwu couldn't help but ask.
Long Xiao's words are really confusing. Since it was a reward, it refused to go through the Central Committee and the Sixth Department. Instead, it was passed down by private decree. Obviously, this cannot be spread externally.
"Your Majesty has an order for the three Wuhous to go their separate ways."
"Marquis Dingwu led the generals of the Jizhou Army, detoured to the southern continent, passed through Fubu Port, transferred to Zhongshan Kingdom, and entered Kyoto."
Marquis Dingwu tasted the meaning of this decree, nodded and said: "In what name?"
"Victory in the battle of the border area, demonstrating national strength, boasting of achievements along the border! Shocking the Southern Border!" Long Xiao said lightly.
"The Shenjian Hou led the important generals of the Qingzhou Army and headed north along the border of West Antarctica, passing through sixteen foreign countries such as the Zhu Kingdom, Peng Fei Kingdom, and the Tiger God Kingdom."
Shen Jianhou nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Obviously his intention was the same as that of Dingwuhou, to frighten the foreign kings in the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
As for why this is done, the reason is actually not difficult to guess.
A few years ago, the policy of destroying ancestral sects and abandoning temples was promoted, and the worst results were in these places. Although it has been restored for almost a year now. However, instead of restraining themselves, the kings seemed to be pushing their limits, and there was an undercurrent of disobedience to the imperial court.
Sending them across the aisle seemed to be a warning.
There is still more than a month left before my birthday. If I find something in the meantime, I will have to add another one to my credit book.
Of course, this kind of thing cannot be given an explicit order. Otherwise, everyone will sniff out the news, and then the meaning of "secret visit" will be lost.
After reading the two Wuhou's orders to Zhao Xin, it is somewhat intriguing.
"King Zhao led the important generals of Wu'an Army to Dayuanfu, passed through Xiangshan Kingdom, turned to Yiyang, entered Yecheng, passed through Nantong. Finally, they passed through Zhending Mountain and entered Dongzhou directly to the capital."
"Huh?" This time, not only the two Wu Hous were surprised, but even Zhao Xin showed a look of doubt on his face.
If we go from West Antarctica to the capital of Dongzhou, the two Marquis Wu would draw an arc on the map, and there would still be traces to follow. Then what Zhao Xing did was just draw zigzags on the map in a flashy way.
After pondering carefully for a moment, Zhao Xing's eyes flickered, as if he understood something. The other two Wuhou also reacted belatedly, and their expressions changed slightly.
"Dayuanfu, Yiyang, Yecheng, Zhending Mountain...the trajectory of this road is not the same as that of the past..."
Thinking of this possibility, Marquis Shenjian and Marquis Dingwu looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes. With their spiritual analysis and a little speculation, they can confirm one thing!
"According to the order." Zhao Xing nodded without saying much.
Long Xiao didn't explain much. He no longer looked serious and businesslike, but drank in silence.
…………
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, five days have passed since the reward from Lixin Palace.
Out of careful consideration, Shen Zhui still maintained a low-key posture behind closed doors and concentrated on practicing.
The deity sometimes comprehends the original rules and purifies the power of Geng Metal, sometimes studies "Five Elements in the Sky", and takes time to study "Linglong Buddha Collection", trying to master the "mind power" and find the state of great perfection of mind.
His clone was not idle either, being pulled by Zen Heart to study the "Ten Thousand Fires Sutra" and "The Great Weapon Refining Ceremony".
According to Zen Xin, the reason why Venerable Ciyun was honored by the true god was because of his ability to refine weapons.
As for the "Lotus Dao Fruit", after returning from the critical land, it produced two Qi Yue Fruits.
Later, it was even more exaggerated. The gift of luck in the imperial edict directly caused the Qi Yue Fruit to produce three and four fruits in one go!
Equivalent to how much luck Shen Zhui gained on the battlefield, the court gave him more luck.
To consolidate the fifth-level realm of the Venerable, the seven clones all practice and comprehend together.
finally.
On April 13th, Shen Zhui was pulled out of his completely closed practice by an order.
"Master Marquis, Your Majesty has invited me." The person who came to deliver the message was King Zhao's personal guard.
"I know, I'll get there after I sort it out a bit." Shen Zhui waved his hand and sent his guards away.
This order stated that on April 15th, he would rush to the capital of Dongzhou to report his duties to the military headquarters and meet the Emperor.
But what Shen Zhui cared about was that King Zhao asked him to go there.
After the battle on Critical Land, he had never seen Zhao Xing in private again.
Except for the time when they accepted the award, they didn't exchange a word.
He never mentioned the proposal of marriage to the royal family again. Although Shen Zhui didn't, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart.
The time is getting closer and closer, May 18th, the Fan family will definitely formally propose marriage.
As for Prince Liang, there has been no movement so far. He has not announced his private life-long engagement with Zixuan, nor does he know what conspiracy he is preparing.
Several times, Shen Zhui wanted to see King Zhao, but he held back.
Whenever there is a big event, you can be calm and calm, thanks to the in-depth cultivation of the state of concentration. The more critical the moment, the calmer Shen Zhui is and how he can maintain his composure.
Zhao Xing had repeatedly guaranteed his marriage to him before, and now that he was at this point, if he continued to ask questions, it would look a bit unsightly. It seemed like he couldn't trust the other party.
Taking a deep breath, Shen Zhui, still wearing the uniform of General Shenwei, rushed to the Heart Palace.
…………
Heart Palace.
In the empty hall, there was only that majestic figure standing in front of the case.
Shen Zhui took a deep breath and saluted: "My lord, Shen Zhui, I have met King Zhao!"
Zhao Xinggui is the king of Zhao State, which is the status of the king. Shen Zhui claims his name, not his title. It also means that he is still a minister of King Zhao.
"Get up." Zhao Xing looked at Shen Zhui carefully and said calmly.
"Thank you, King Zhao."
"Shen Zhui, do you know your guilt?" Zhao Xing shouted.
"I don't know what the crime is, but I would like to ask the prince to make it clear." Shen Zhui replied unhurriedly.
"You are a general in the army, but you have accepted the gift from Prince Liang's Mansion."
"Knowing that Prince Liang and I are not at odds with each other, yet we are secretly colluding with him!"
"Think about this matter of becoming the champion, if it weren't for Prince Liang's love for you, it would never have been your turn!"
"You are innocent!" A smile appeared on Zhao Xing's lips.
"Prince?" Shen Zhui couldn't help but look at Zhao Xing in shock.
He never expected that the first thing Zhao Xing would do when they met was to accuse him.
"Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely groundless. How could this subordinate..." Shen Zhui defended seriously, but when he saw the smile on the corner of Zhao Xing's mouth, he knew that he had been fooled.
"My lord, you..." Shen Zhui couldn't help but be speechless. He didn't expect that Marquis Wu An, who was always calm, would actually make such a joke.
"Hahaha." Zhao Xing laughed immediately when he saw Shen Zhui's embarrassed face.
"Your qi-raising skills are nothing after all. If you can't keep your qi calm, when you enter the capital in the future, you will come into contact with princes from all over the world, true gods and powerful people. How can you deal with them?"
"I can only provide you with an opportunity to marry the princess. After all, it still depends on you!" Zhao Xing said seriously.
Shen Zhui let out a long breath and said: "If it were another true god, he would be crowned king. Naturally, the subordinates would not be like this, but the prince is different. The prince has outstanding military exploits, unparalleled achievements and great fame, so the subordinates lost their sense of proportion. However, the prince lost his temper. ...Thank you, Your Majesty, for the tip."
"Okay." Zhao Xing waved his hand and said. "I know you are anxious now. Huh, you actually doubted my character before, and you kept sending the letter from Prince Liang..."
"The prince is naturally wise and mighty, and will not be deceived by others. It is the subordinates who use the heart of a man to judge the heart of a gentleman." Shen Zhui looked serious.
"Okay." Zhao Xing said angrily. "You don't have to flatter me. Come and sit."
"Yes." Shen Zhui smiled and walked over quickly.
As before, after the two of them sat down, Zhao Xing brewed a pot of tea and handed out two cups of tea for Shen Zhui to taste.
After a while, after drinking a cup of tea, Shen Zhui felt that his mood had calmed down a lot.
"I received news from the court yesterday that Xuan Yatou is still at Xuanyue Fairy Island in the South China Sea. She has broken through to the ninth level of the Supreme Being."
"Huh? Zixuan has broken through to the ninth level of the Venerable?" Shen Zhui couldn't help being slightly stunned after hearing the news about Xin Shangrao. This speed is too fast.
But when I think about it, it’s normal. Ji Zixuan is in the realm of divine power and has full attributes!
With the training of the royal family, and the mother clan being very powerful, there is no shortage of famous teachers.
Breaking through to the ninth level of the Venerable is not a surprise.
"She also asked Long Xiao to bring some 'gifts' to me, Uncle Xing, to congratulate me on becoming King Zhao." Zhao Xing said with a smile. "However, there was no sincerity at all, so I just sent a few packages of broken pearls."
"On the contrary, even I am envious of the things I have given you. As the saying goes, girls should turn their elbows outward if they are outgoing. This is true, even the daughter of the royal family is no exception."
Zhao Xing sighed slightly, Ji Zixuan's mother was Fairy Xuanyue, who ruled the South China Sea Islands. She is also the only one favored by the Emperor of China. She can find stars and moons for her.
The things she gave away made him, a true god, jealous, which showed her wealth.
"Is she, is she doing well?" Shen Zhui asked.
"You still have some conscience." Zhao Xing said with a smile. "I didn't ask about the treasure."
With a flip of his palm, a storage ring appeared in front of Shen Zhui.
"See for yourself, I won't be the messenger anymore. She left you a message with a thousand-year-old mirage bead."
Shen Zhui quickly took the storage ring, scanned it with his spiritual thoughts, and immediately discovered the bright green mirage bead.
"Buzz~" With a slight movement of his spiritual thoughts, an illusory space suddenly appeared in the mirage bead, covering Shen Zhui inside.
Sun, sand, waves.
Under the big ginseng tree, a beautiful figure is lying on a dark black turtle on the beach.
There was a hint of helplessness in the black turtle's huge eyes, and it seemed that it was extremely afraid of the humans above it. In front of it, there were a group of sea beasts who were treated the same way.
From sea dragons to horses, giant turtles, sea snakes, dragons, and even Kun, they all shrank down and lay on the shore.
"Get down here!" A voice came from this dynamic scene. Hearing the familiar tone, Shen Zhui's nose was slightly sour and he continued to look at the back.
"Later, you all will shout in unison, 'Champion Honoree Mighty'! 'See Champion Honoree'!"
"You must shout three times, in perfect order, without making any mistakes. Do you understand?"
"If anyone makes a mistake, I will roast you all!"
"Listen, I understand..." Waves of neat trills came.
"..." Shen Zhui couldn't help but laugh or cry, this was all nonsense! Looking at these ferocious beasts in the deep sea, each one of them was like a well-behaved dog, trembling in front of Zixuan, which made him a little funny.
"Come on, do it first!" Zixuan said in a high-pitched voice. "start!"
"Meet the champion!"
"The champion is mighty!"
"..." From the outside, Zhao Xing, who sensed this scene, couldn't help but be speechless.
"It's great to be young." Zhao Xing smiled and shook his head, withdrawing his feeling.
Standing behind Zixuan, Shen Zhui couldn't help but smile. Although it is very childish for a princess of a country to do such a thing, who is not childish in front of the one they love?
Finally, seemingly satisfied, Zixuan turned around.
The outline of her charming profile emerged, and as her body turned, her entire beautiful appearance slowly appeared in front of Shen Zhui.
The sun shone on Zixuan's face, staining it with a hint of crimson. The noble aura was gone, and only the shy look of a child was left.
Shen Zhui's breathing was rapid and he couldn't help but take two steps forward.
"Shen Zhui, don't move!" Zixuan said with a smile. "You must want to rush over now, right?"
Shen Zhui nodded subconsciously, and then realized that this was just a one-sided image, and there was no possibility of any communication at all.
"Don't move, I'll come over." Zixuan jumped off the black turtle with a smile, ran to Shen Zhui's side, opened her arms, and seemed to be hugging something.
Shen Zhui also opened his arms and hugged Zixuan into his arms.
"You guys, lower your heads." Zixuan muttered and glanced back.
All the ferocious beasts in the deep sea honestly lowered their heads and buried them in the sand.
Next, the chatter begins.
Zixuan lowered her head slightly and said quickly.
"Shen Zhui, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. I heard that my father has conferred a title on you. You are still the second champion in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Congratulations."
"Shen Zhui, I'm so bored on Xuanyue Fairy Island. No one dares to play with me. It's really boring. I can only bully these ferocious beasts... But I didn't really eat them. Their meat is too hard and not tasty. …”
"No, Xuanyue Immortal Island still has some good things, such as the Millennium Vermillion Fruit, the South China Sea Spirit Pearl, and a very delicious fruit called the Sea Spirit Fruit, which is very delicious. I brought you some...etc. You’re here, would you like to accompany me to the depths of the South China Sea?”
"Ah, and among the things I gave to Uncle Xing, there are some good things I stole from my mother. Now that you are at the Venerable level, you will definitely need them. But you have to come see me quickly, and I still have to Still going back..."
"Shen Zhui, I miss you..." Shen Zhui babbled, like mumbling in his sleep. As he listened, Shen Zhui felt his vision become blurred. I don’t know how much time passed, but the sun was setting in the west. Shen Zhui felt the figure shaking. Zixuan 'left' her embrace, jumped onto the black turtle again, waving her fists. "Come, raise your head and shout again!" "See the champion!" "The champion is mighty!" "See..."
